Haha sorry, I had most of a response typed out but got called into a meeting and lost it...Are you going to ignore me @mikey ? Engage me you cowardThe D you are battling must be swinging pillows at you. Unless by playing like Hornqvist you mean unable to carry it over a line.
And Manny Malhotra?? Your job was to win a draw and get the F off the ice immediately?
No pillows, I can carry it across the far blue if I'm not taking it to the house if I'm doing that...I have a big slow ass relative to my size...if I cross the line with the puck, I'm looking to throw a pass all the way across and get to the net...
And I have been tasked with being a faceoff guy a la Malhotra or Zigomanis. If you put me on the right in my defensive zone, I have roughly a 128% faceoff percentage there. Not too shabby in the offensive zone either. Before the virus got loose, I was trying to teach myself the Crosby forehand slap on my wrong side, but it's insanely hard for how easy he makes it look...so I started working with a backhand slap, forehand push move...I've lost all that work having not taken a faceoff in eight months...
